Sprinkle pecans over bottom of a greased 13x9-inch baking pan. Cut each loaf of thawed bread dough into approximately 18 pieces; place half the dough over the pecans. Top with apples and cranberries.
In medium saucepan over medium heat, melt brown sugar, butter, corn syrup and cinnamon, stirring frequently. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla and baking soda. Cool slightly. Pour over bread dough in pan.
